I'm upgrading my exhuast from stock to BBK equal length headers and off road x-pipe and flowmaster series 40.What do I do about the O2 sensors? Will the car run the same or will it richen up? Thanks for any help.

Get MIL Eleminotors.

What kind of car are you modding?
On my friends 4.6 he needed them to ensure his check engine light didn't come on, and he was afraid of what you were talking about.. the richening etc. On my 89, I didn't run them, and ran off road, and my air/fuel ratio stayed bang on. My off road had bungs for the 02 which I used, and I never had a problem.

You may need o2 sensor harness extenders depending on how far down the o2 sensor is positioned. I would think you have nothing to worry about.

MIL eliminators are not for fox body cars.

dude it wont be any problems just make sure to put your o2 sensors in the x pipe first and then install it in the car but make sure to have alot of extension the hard side is the passenger side be careful not to put pressure on the o2 sensor.

factory wires are long enough just have to re rout them
